        <strong>Thoughts affect feelings </strong>
    </p>
    <p>
        To illustrate that thoughts influence feelings, please try this experiment: Think of the most embarrassing moment in your life (wait a few seconds before reading further so that you can imagine this moment).
    </p>
    <p>
        If you think about it for a while, you&#39;ll probably find that you start to sense the feeling of embarrassment. Maybe you even get a little embarrassed. You are obviously not doing anything embarrassing right now. The thought alone makes you feel embarrassed! It is also the thought that produces the physiological reaction, which is to blush.
    </p>
    <p>
        Now think instead of something sad. A situation where you became really, really sad and maybe even started crying (wait a few seconds before reading further so that you can imagine this situation).
    </p>
    <p>
        You probably start feeling a bit sad after a while. Only a short while ago you felt embarrassed, and the only thing that changed were your thoughts. Nothing has changed in the &quot;real world&quot;, and yet, your thoughts create very different feelings. It is important to realize the power of thoughts, but also the fact that it is not always what actually happens in our lives that affect how we feel, but rather what we think of it when it happens and after it has happened.
